Can this dock be used to connect my iPod Classic to the iPod USB port on my Yamaha A/V receiver instead of the cable that comes with the iPod?

Yes. That will work. If the the iPod can talk to your receiver with a cable, it will work through the dock the same way. It only works with the older 30 pin iPods. Not the new lightning connector

I don't know if that will fit in the dock but you will be able to connect it via the usb connection if not on the dock

You would have to buy an adapter to allow it to dock in the old wider ipod/iphone port but yes it can connect

You can, but it's not ideal. I hooked up my ipod using a 1/8 jack to stereo RCA Jacks, plugged into the front AV input. Get good audio quality, but no control over the iPod, of course... I'm probably going to go ahead and invest in a dock...

Robert - I use my Dock with an IPod (4G) without any issue. The connection on the rear of the receiver was very straight forward. You will need to be familiar with your receiver in that you will have to assign the input for the dock to allow it to be selected. My Onkyo receiver had a very good user guide. Download it first if you don't have it before you begin to set up the dock.

You would need an adapter cord. The dock is not for lightning style interface plug.

Hi Jim, I am not sure if it will work on that Yamaha receiver. I know my receiver is about 10 years old and it has the multi-pin jack - if your receiver has the multi-pin jack for Ipod - I am most assured it will fit. I can't think they redesigned a whole lot of these things. Hope it works for you and enjoy your Ipod music!

Short answer is no. If you use a 3.5mm stereo cable to plug it in you can still use it. However, I don't think you can connect an ipod classic to the dock so you would not be able to use the remote control. If you go to kicker's website they give a full list of what is compatible wih the doc. I think the oldest ipod compatible is the ipod touch gen2 but don't quote me on that. Hope that helps. Good luck with your shopping.

Aaron, I don't see why not. The dock has RCA output jacks. I hope this helps...:-)

Yes. The Apple charge/sync cable will fit. You just can't use most docks without an adapter.

If you use a link cable from the speaker of the IPOD to the Speaker Dock, and insert it into the port of the docking station on the back, then push the input button on the Speaker Dock, that should work. (It is the same cable/wire you use to connect your IPOD to a car's stereo system.) There is a port on the docking station that allows you to hook up other devices to the docking station and use its' speakers. Otherwise, I don't know.

Anything with the apple 30 pin connector will sit in the dock. The connector folds in and anything else can use the aux jack

I would think it would work ok. I docked my iPod Classic on the DS-A4 to a Technics receiver I have from the late 80's. Cannot use the receiver control options on the docking station's remote but works fine controlling the iPod.

I tested with a yamaha dock YDS-10 in a receiver and other ipod dock stations but all they use the analog imputs not digital and worked fine, hope it helps. Will be better if able to pair more than 1 device.

Yes! I use this to dock my iPhone 4 it plays music and my ambiance sound from an app. My sister can use it with her 4s as well.

Hi Patty, Sony LBTGPX55 Mini Hifi Component System doesn't have a dock for Apple devices. But you can connect your Apple device via Audio in port using a 3.5mm jack to phono. -Vincent

The classic iPod docks on this model. It's what I use to listen to and charge my classic iPod.
